^do it man, i wanna hear it. and man, hearing all of you guys doing exhaust on the car makes me want to have mine modify a little more. because mine only have the aftermarket muffler at the back, and its so quiet.

Ok I finally got them edited and uploaded!


This first one is out front of my house, lots of engine noise, but you can get the overall picture.

The second one is me getting on the highway, I'd say I was about 95% on the throttle. Sunroof tilted and back windows cracked. Had some fun with the editor

Last, but not least, I decided to take another vid. Dusk at my sister's house. Engine noise was cut substantially, however there is a wierd "putter" noise when I get behind the car. My camera did that, it doesn't really have that sound in it.

Sounds great - awesome to hear the LS 400's 1UZFE. I will do X-Pipe next and I look forward to see if it changes the sound/performance.

I think it would have been cool to see the other drivers face as you blew by him on your 95MPH run.
